This summer, North is again on a revised weekly operating schedule. The college will officially close at 1:00 p.m. on Fridays. Summer hours began on Monday, July 6, 2015, and will run through Friday, September 4.

The co-op preschool classes at North Seattle College provide a strong program designed to encourage the social, emotional, physical, and mental development of young children.

Science Within Reach: CHEM&110, Chemistry and Society. This is a new non-majors chemistry class for fall quarter that fulfills the lab science requirement for the AA degree.

This course is chemistry for students who need a lab science class but have previously been unsure about taking chemistry, or thought chemistry was too hard, too geeky or not relevant. If you’ve never taken a science course or a science lab and are not going into nursing or medical-technical fields, this is the class for you.

Find out if you are eligible for funding and sign-up for an orientation at www.startnextquarter.org. Or call us at (206)934-3787 or stop by the Workforce Education Office located on the 2nd floor of the Opportunity Center for Employment and Education (OCE&E) building, room 240.
